Deron Miller, the boundlessly prolific guitarist and voice behind several beloved projects unconstrained by industry expectations and genre limitations, is best known as the founder, frontman and songwriter of CKY. His authentic and effortlessly catchy heavy rock obsession returns with 96 BITTER BEINGS. Reinvigorated and ready to rumble from the front, Miller roars back with the same reverence for riffs that made underground hits out of CKY anthems like "Flesh Into Gear," "Escape from Hellview" and "Disengage the Simulator" from 1998 to 2011. The familiar warmth, feel, groove and uncompromising honesty that led the song "96 Quite Bitter Beings" to 54 million streams (on Spotify alone) permeate the two albums unleashed by 96BB.
"After CKY and a brief hiatus, I decided to move on without changing the sound," Miller explains. "Because that's what I do. It's what I like to do and what people say I do well. All the guys who came into the band with me are great musicians. And every one of them is hungry. They have priorities and ambitions to be in a rock band, no matter how gritty the pop music out there is. If we can bring rock and metal back into the mainstream in some way, that's the dream."
